A skateboarding video game by Neversoft that takes place in several different parts of Los Angeles, and also a classic mode and normal story mode. Usually referred to as "THAW".

In my silly opinion, it's good but mediocre compared to Tony hawks American Underground 2 (THUG2).
Tony Hawk's American Wasteland is NO Tony Hawk's Underground 2, I'm sorry.

Get the Tony Hawk's American Wasteland mug.
*Seventh game in the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater series. Available for the Playstation 2, the Xbox, the Xbox 360, and the Gamecube. Characterized by the false promise of allowing the player to skate through all of Los Angeles County, it is actually composed of several boring levels.
*a false promise
*Tony Hawk's American Wasteland costs $60 on the Xbox 360 even though it is the worst version of the game.
* You said we could go to Disneyland! Was that just a Tony Hawk's American Wasteland?
